z-layrex Posted 2 May 2013 Posted 2 May 2013 What the **** is happening to this country? So sick and tired of being told what to do by fat ugly bald blokes in high vis.
Captain... Posted 2 May 2013 Posted 2 May 2013 It's their own stupid fault for having such a pointless little rivalry, if they cause trouble in there games then they only have themselves to blame. If this became norm for football fans I would be pissed off, but they act like twats when they play each other so treat them like twats.
WeAreGoingUp Posted 2 May 2013 Posted 2 May 2013 so if i purchase a ticket but cannot make it at last minute i am not aloud to give it to my best mate who is desperate to go and has never cause any trouble in his life? joke!
Floating Fox Posted 2 May 2013 Posted 2 May 2013 Hardly that stressful for any visiting fan. You have a wallet with a license in it, when you give in your ticket (like every game ever) you might be asked is that really you; and you go yeah heres my id mate; and you go in. Seriously is that a massive task? Is it worth boycotting your biggest game in God knows how many years? Because you dont want to flash your driving license at someone whos already stopped you to check your ticket? When have you ever been made to show ID for a game before. I certainly haven't. Why do they need to give everyone's details to the police and to palace football club (Well known to have thug stewards too). It won't be long before this is standard procedure though thanks to people like yourself!
Dan Posted 2 May 2013 Posted 2 May 2013 Absolute joke yet absolutely nothing will be done about it and we as football fans will be continued to be looked at as the scum of the earth despite the fact it's a vast minority who bring the entire reputation down. Take special measures to ban the troublemakers, and stop punishing everyone for the minority's faults.
goose2010 Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 I didnt even know they were rivals until this season?! Bit over the top to be honest, Liverpool play Everton Sunday I bet they dont get treated like this!
Soar Fox Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 It's more like an airport security check than a football match.
The God Emperor Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 Jesus its Brighton V Palace. I went to Millwall V West ham and they had less security!
AyewJoking Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 how about we just kick both clubs out of the play-offs and replace them with the teams in 7th and 8th?
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 Can understand the first three thats it. How some people can have ID i dont know, its not possible especially for youngsters
MooseBreath Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 I'm a big critic of the mummy state but these conditions look pretty bog standard to me. They're mostly alll about the police and the clubs covering their own backs. I can't see how any of the conditions are going to have a negative impact upon most people's experience of the game. Ironically the lefty Brighton fans are the type who have brought this kind of crap upon everyone by always seeking to blame someone else. If it wasn't for the blame culture we wouldn't need any of this softly softly super careful crap. Police would just go at troublemakers with truncheons. Problem solved. But no, the lefties moan about that citing "oppression" and now lo and behold here they are moaning at this approach too, "ah human rites, totalitarianism, 3dum of chois innit". Cvnts. You can be damn sure they'll be the first ****ers blaming everyone else in the event of any trouble.
BHAFC Braders Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 It's daft considering both the league games have passed major incident free. Wonder what hoops that lot will have to jump through when(if) they come down to ours mind. Btw the rivalry from our POV is still that they are local in comparison to us - Crawley don't really count.
ADK Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 I dunno i've grown up living in a police state, on a night out you need ID to get into pretty much any bar or club and it's pretty clear it's not just about age. I'm sure this will soon become the norm for football matches as it gives the police an easier time tracing people and the clubs probably won't mind either. I can see they'll start allowing you to change the person on the ticket for a £10 "admin" fee so it will bring in abit of extra revenue too.
anotherharboroughfox Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 on a night out you need ID to get into pretty much any bar or club and it's pretty clear it's not just about age. what else is it about?
ADK Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 what else is it about? I'm sure they quite like to make sure everyone there has personal ID on them in case there's any trouble. During the day you won't be asked for ID if you actually look clearly old enough.

Apart from America I can't think where I've needed I.D to get into a nightclub for about 7-8 years. And I include United Arab Emirates, Australia, New Zealand, China, Canada, Spain and Denmark in that. (humblebrag)

Guest MattP Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 When I went Vegas on my friends stag do his dad (bobby own's the king Richard pub) got Id'd in the MGM the blokes late 50's early 60's Was it TABU? I'd been on it for about 36 hours non stop and staggered up to try and get in there, 2 bouncers asked for I,D, had lost my passport so said i didn't have anything on me, argued for about 10 mins before walking away. Turned round and charged up and tried to jump the rope, tripped and fell head first onto the floor. Got escorted out the premises and went back to the Excalibur where I was staying, went to reception and got told I had to go to the hospital as my roommate had downed a load of Jaegerbombs, fell into a craps table and been sent off to have his stomach pumped. Need to get out there again this year.
Harry - LCFC Posted 3 May 2013 Posted 3 May 2013 What is this? A police state? Our freedom as human beings is being infringed.

One of the lads who was with us couldn't get in because he wasn't wearing pants this resulted him in pulling down his shorts and standing infront of the doorman shouting "what are these then" whilst pointing to his wide fronts. Looking at going back out there again in August depending on whether I can tempt a couple of friends to come with me.
BHAFC Braders Posted 5 May 2013 Posted 5 May 2013 Good read this http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/news-and-comment/the-last-word-orwellian-curb-on-fans-entry-is-id-system-by-the-back-door-8604179.html and apparently the Met were pushing for NO away fans at the game Friday night. Got my ticket but absolutely dreading it - on AND off the pitch.
AKCJ Posted 5 May 2013 Posted 5 May 2013 It's daft considering both the league games have passed major incident free. This. You could probably see where the police were coming from if there had been incidents at the league games.

Got my ticket but absolutely dreading it - on AND off the pitch. Ridiculous. Police should just keep their mouths shut and get on with doing their job. What next? A campaign to stop people leaving their houses after dark?
